The impact of our Religious Education curriculum is that pupils at High Wycombe Church of England School are religiously literate and able to hold balanced and well-informed conversations about religion, belief and worldviews. They are equipped with the knowledge, understanding and skills to reflect deeply, think critically and live respectfully with others in a diverse society. 

Through RE, our pupils develop: 

• Secure knowledge of Christianity as a living faith, alongside other principal religions and non-religious worldviews represented in Great Britain. 

• The ability to make links between beliefs, practices and values, and to recognise how these influence individuals, communities and cultures. 

• Skills of enquiry, analysis, interpretation and evaluation, enabling them to ask and explore big questions of meaning and purpose. 

• Respect, empathy and appreciation for the beliefs and perspectives of others, while being confident to articulate their own ideas clearly and thoughtfully. 

• A sense of identity and belonging, developed through reflecting on their own beliefs and values and learning to contribute positively to the school, the local community and the wider world. 

• Our children leave High Wycombe C of E with the wisdom, knowledge and courage to engage in meaningful dialogue with people of all faiths and none, and with the character to flourish as thoughtful, compassionate and resilient individuals.
